Abstract
A closure or bushing member for openings in electrical boxes, conduit ends and the like is formed as an integral unit of a thermoplastic synthetic organic polymeric resin and includes a disc or annular shaped head and a coaxial hollow cylindrical shank of lesser diameter. Extending from opposite sides of the distal end of the shank are a pair of opposite radially projecting arms, which terminate in wing members of greater width than the radial arms and which have conically surfaced outer faces flaring rearwardly outwardly. A peripheral recess is formed in the rear outer face of each wing to provide a rearwardly facing shoulder for resiliently engaging the inside border of the opening to which the closure member is applied to retain the closure member therein.
